Offshore nine Balearic and four Manx Shearwater, two Pomarine Skua, 33 Sandwich Tern, seven Fulmar and three Common Scoter flew south with two Teal flying in off.
Other Wildlife: A Grey Seal was in The Bight at high tide, with six Small Red-eyed Damselfly and a Black-tailed Skimmer at the Main Pond before the rain.
At least 15 Wasp Spider were found in Greenland Lake with the damp weather making the webs easier to find. Despite the conditions a Dark Fleabane Neb Apodia bifractella was found and the nationally scarce Tawny Cockroach was found under driftwood with numerous Lesser Cockroach.
